I have been happy with the Cowon iAudio7, is is just a USB device to Linux. This was reviewed in Linux Magazine a while back. The 4G unit is about $80.The battery lasts forever, at least a week of playing songs, spec claims 60 hours. The user interface is fine for finding songs, but you need two hands and need to look at the unit to navigate. Touch controls are extremely sensitive...Stock earphones are worthless, I replaced with Skullcandy INKD ($20) which are fantastic.
